Metro-scale QKD using multimode fiber

Adam Brzosko, Robert I Woodward, Yuen San Lo +4

We report a proof-of-principle realisation of a decoy-state BB84 QKD protocol with phase encoding over a record-breaking 17 km of MMF at a rate of 193 kbits/s, as well as over 1 Mb…

Coherent Quantum Communications Across National Scale Telecommunication Infrastructure

Mirko Pittaluga, Yuen San Lo, Adam Brzosko +10

Quantum communications harness quantum phenomena like superposition and entanglement to enhance information transfer between remote nodes. Coherent quantum communications, essentia…

Simplified intensity- and phase-modulated transmitter for modulator-free decoy-state quantum key distribution

Y. S. Lo, R. I. Woodward, N. Walk +8

Quantum key distribution (QKD) allows secret key exchange between two users with unconditional security. For QKD to be widely deployed, low cost and compactness are crucial require…

Gigahertz measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution using directly modulated lasers

R. I. Woodward, Y. S. Lo, M. Pittaluga +5

Measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) is a technique for quantum-secured communication that eliminates all detector side-channels, although is currently…

Coherent phase transfer for real-world twin-field quantum key distribution

Cecilia Clivati, Alice Meda, Simone Donadello +10

Quantum mechanics allows the distribution of intrinsically secure encryption keys by optical means. Twin-field quantum key distribution is the most promising technique for its impl…

600 km repeater-like quantum communications with dual-band stabilisation

Mirko Pittaluga, Mariella Minder, Marco Lucamarini +5

Twin-field (TF) quantum key distribution (QKD) fundamentally alters the rate-distance relationship of QKD, offering the scaling of a single-node quantum repeater. Although recent e…

Experimental quantum key distribution beyond the repeaterless secret key capacity

M. Minder, M. Pittaluga, G. L. Roberts +4

Quantum communications promise to revolutionise the way information is exchanged and protected. Unlike their classical counterpart, they are based on dim optical pulses that cannot…

Patterning-effect-free intensity modulator for secure decoy-state quantum key distribution

G. L. Roberts, M. Pittaluga, M. Minder +4

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a technology that allows two users to exchange keys securely. The decoy state technique enhances the technology, ensuring keys can be shared at hi…

Three-observer Bell inequality violation on a two-qubit entangled state

Matteo Schiavon, Luca Calderaro, Mirko Pittaluga +2

Bipartite Bell inequalities can be simultaneously violated by two different pairs of observers when weak measurements and signaling is employed. Here we experimentally demonstrate…
